“Dad! Mom! Don’t leave!”
“It’s fake, it was just an illusion!”
“Hahaha! I did it, I became an immortal!!!”
“No, this is fake, don’t try to fool me!”
At that moment, the boys and girls on the Trial of Heart gradually woke up. As if they had experienced a nightmare, they cried out, interrupting Lu Changsheng’s train of thought.
“Lu Changsheng, when did you wake up?”
The few people next to him were surprised to see that Lu Changsheng had already awakened.
“I’ve just woken up a little while ago too,”
Lu Changsheng replied, taking in the three young men and two women before him.
Hong Yi, sixteen years old, Eighth Grade Spiritual Root, the son of a marquis.
Han Lin, fifteen years old, Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, born to a blacksmith.
Li Feiyu, eighteen years old, Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, young gang leader of the Crimson Whale Gang.
Xiao Xiyue, fifteen years old, Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, young lady from a scholarly family.
Zhao Qingqing, sixteen years old, Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, born to a physician.
These five, like him, were all Immortal Seedlings brought in by the secular branch of the Qingyun Sect.
On the way, they had come to know each other quite well.
However, this familiarity was nothing more than banding together for warmth in an unfamiliar environment.
The disparities in the backgrounds of the five were too great to allow for much common ground in conversation.
Only Han Lin and Lu Changsheng hit it off somewhat better.
Since Lu Changsheng came from a farmer’s family, he found it easier to talk to Han Lin.
“I seemed to be the first one to wake up, I wonder if I can enter an Immortal Sect.”
Lu Changsheng, watching the others gradually wake up around him, pondered in his heart.
Even with a system by his side, he still hoped to be accepted into the Qingyun Sect.
Because he was merely a common farmer by birth, it was only by a fortuitous chance that he had obtained an opportunity for Cultivation and was led to the Qingyun Sect’s assessment.
If he couldn’t join the Qingyun Sect, pursuing Cultivation would be extremely difficult.
Cultivation requires “wealth, companions, techniques, and land,” none of which can be lacking.
Wealth needs no explanation.
In both the secular world and the Cultivation World, money is always of the utmost importance.
Companion refers to fellow Daoists, companions.
Technique refers to Cultivation Techniques, the teachings of others.
The last, land, refers to the place of Cultivation.
In ordinary mortal regions, without Spirit Veins and where Spiritual Energy is sparse and barren, Cultivation progresses very slowly.
If one can enter the Qingyun Sect, at least in the initial stages, one would have wealth, companions, techniques, and land—all in place.
This is why countless people yearn to be accepted into an Immortal Sect.
“Those whose names are called, step forward.”
Before long, as everyone on the Inquiry Heart Stage woke up, an executor from the Qingyun Sect floated in the air, took out a Jade Scroll, and began to announce the list of successful candidates.
“Zhu San, Xiao Yuan, Han Lin… Xiao Xiyue, Zhao Qingqing…”
Names were called one after another. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Those whose names were called were beyond excited, brimming with joy, and full of longing for their future as Immortals.
Those whose names were not called sank deeper into a heavy mood, fraught with disappointment.
“Is that it?”
Li Feiyu, seeing the Qingyun Sect executor put away the list, showed a face of unwillingness.
“How could my name not be on the list!?”
Hong Yi also bit his lip tightly, his complexion turned pale as he struggled to believe it.
Although he possessed an Eighth Grade Spiritual Root, he was of noble birth and had previously spent connections and money to facilitate his acceptance.
“Sigh!”
Lu Changsheng, seeing that his name was not included, also sighed, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.
Still, with the system, the blow wasn’t too hard to bear.
Next to him, some people were crying out loud in distress at this moment.
“The rest of you, leave the sect gate immediately!”
